Sleep-Tracking Home Appliances

LG and Asleep Join Forces on a Range of Smart Home Technology

— December 27, 2022 — Tech
LG works together with Korean AI tech startup company Asleep to launch a collection of smart home appliances that serve the main purpose of detecting when users are asleep. It then aims to adjust the appliances accordingly based on the users' needs.

The artificially intelligent technology by Asleep helps users track the four sleeping stages by tracking their breathing sounds and using these devices that have microphones to better understand. This includes smart TVs and smartphones. LG aims to integrate these features into its devices including TVs, air conditioners, washing machines, fridges, and air purifiers. With the information integrated, the appliances are able to turn on and off based on the most optimized settings when a user is asleep or not.
